DarkRoast 12/15/21 9:05:01 AM #8:	The Sumerians were so advanced relative to all other cultures around them, including the Akkadians. Even after they were conquered, Sumerian remained the official language of science and education in Mesopotamia until 100 AD, but Akkad directly led to Assyria and Babylonia, spin-off cultures. It therefore led to abrahamic religion, the foundations of most western cultural ideals, etc. --- Razer Blade 15 - Core i7 9750H, RTX 2080 Max-Q, 32 GB DDR4 2666 <cite>DarkRoast posted [p:960933116] in The most i...

Literally all of modern society and geopolitics hinged upon Akkadians conquering the Sumerians I argue that you are incorrect The single most important conflicts in human history thus far were either WW2 and/or the Cold War. That or the colonization of the Americas. Those events we can point to as directly shaping the world we see today in an immediately tangible sense. I suggest that you are citing the most important early conflict in recorded history, on a large scale, and tracking its repercussions across time. I mean .. what was Asia up to around then?
